Angry Yay for me, I hit some road debris!!!

I'm a little pissed off to tell the story so ill get to it, I hit a shredded tire, no time and too thick off traffic to move out the way. And I love my erebuni kit, so I called them up......"sorry we dont make that anymore" I still have other places to check tho. I just dont know wether to bondo it up and repaint, or just try to find a new one.....somewhere.

Here are some depressing pics

That is easily fixable by any reputable shop who has experience using fiberglass, that is as long as you don’t mind having it fixed..... but since they are no longer being produced its going to be hard to source a brand new one.
